Embroidery Thread
Embroidery thread is made from a variety of fibers: rayon,
polyester, acrylic or metallic. These threads create a smooth
glossy appearance for embroidery and other decorative
stitching.
Embroidery thread is not typically used in the bobbin unless
both sides of the project will be seen. A light weight,
embroidery bobbin thread is often used in the bobbin instead.
The lighter weight thread does not build up under the
embroidery.
Note: When using a metallic or a flat film thread for embroidery, you
may need to use a needle with a larger eye and lower the embroidery
speed.
Transparent Thread
Transparent thread, also called monofilament thread, is a
single clear synthetic thread. It is used for quilting and other
decorative sewing. When winding a bobbin, wind at half
speed and fill the bobbin half full.
